Blazing Saddles

John Ford's Cavalry trilogy

We Were Soldiers

Blade Runner

Dirty Harry
The Enforcer
Magnum Force

Some Walter Hill movies:
Extreme Prejudice
Last  Man Standing
Streets of Fire

Mystery Science Theater 3000- almost every episode, but Space Mutiny is my favorite.

And what list would be complete without Plan 9 from Outer Space?

In terms of movies Brazil is one of the few I could watch over and over, the first few Shrek movies are high on that list too.

In terms of TV shows? I don't really watch TV but I love MASH and some of the older shows, nothing new really interests me at all. I sometimes watch the nonsense that is Dragon's Den and Canada's Worst Driver though  :p

A Canadian TV show I like is Flashpoint.

I know it's been a couple of years since it was on TV in Canada. We get the old episodes down here on ION TV.

Agree with numerous ones already posted.

I've seen every Seinfeld episode at least a dozen times, but just default to TBS when it is on after work.  And I own the entire series.  Still cracks me up.

Yes on Blazing Saddles.  No chance that movie could be made today.  Mel Brooks is a genius.

Multiple other movies...the John Hughes ones, although I used to love The Breakfast Club...it seems dated and boring now for some reason.

Mrs. E just ordered the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy for me.

I'm just now finishing up the book and I thought I'd finally watch the movies. Seen bits and pieces before, but never the whole damned thing.

Most WWII themed movies, "Patton" being one of my more favorite ones
ALL of the Star Wars series
Star Trek (ALL of the different series)
Twilight Zone
Outer Limits (TOS & the newer series)
Stargate SG-1 & Atlantis
Farscape (see a pattern here, yet?)
Lost in Space
CSI & CSI, NY
Criminal Minds
Grease
Outlander

I'm sure there's more but I don't wanna type all day....
